The mono-mode bitmaps, instated by defining a -bitmapDirectory,
can be reset using the View-Board menu, so no need to edit the config file by
hand.

You are right about that. However when I tried I got a segfault!


Oh yes, now I remember that occurred to me too. The patch that fixed the 
animation masks on swithing back to color mode fixes that too.


A string constant (DEF_BITMAP_DIR) is assigned to appData.bitmapDirectory 
when you change to monoMode if it was NULL.


So when I try to change bitmap directory later DEF_BITMAP_DIR is attempted 
free()'ed, and xboard crashes.


Add a strdup() at xboard.c:1946.

Fine, but where is the patch?

The only way to
revert this is to quit xboard and manually edit .xboardrc to remove the
automatically inserted -bitmapDirectory option.


This is not true: the bitmapDirectory can be specified from the View-Board
menu dialog as well.

A string constant (DEF_BITMAP_DIR) is assigned to 
appData.bitmapDirectory when you change to monoMode if it was NULL.

Switching to modo-mode does force it to a default
value
when it was not yet set, because you mut ue bitmap pieces in mono-mode,
and they are not built in. But it is not forbidden to use bitmap pieces
in color
mode, so there is no reason to force the bitmapDirectory to empty when
switching off mono-mode. The user will have to indicate explicitly he wants
that, by clearing the bitmapDirectory field in the dialog together with
unticking
mono-mode.


You could argue that a value is forced in, should be automatically 
removed again when it is no more needed.

Please read bitmap where I wrote bitmark. It was a typo.
